We will now continue on page 145. Deputy minister’s office, grants, contributions and transfers. Are there any questions? Are we agreed?

Thank you, Mr. Thompson. I’ll take that as a comment. Next we have Mr. McNeely.

Agreed. Thank you, committee. We will now return to the second blue tab in the tabled document titled, “Borrowing Plan for the Government Reporting Entity and Established Borrowing Limits for the Government of the Northwest Territories.” Established limits per 2016-2017 Appropriation Act, $610,340,000. Agreed? Any questions, comments?

Thank you, Mr. Chair. Yes, it would be nice to increase these funds. I see it actually went down from $400,000 to $185,000. You know it’s a shame because, like I said, we need more funding because, you know, a lot of the highways we have many accidents and we need to help support the communities to be first on the scene and take care of our residents. Thank you.

Thank you, Mr. Vanthuyne. Minister McLeod. Mr. Kalgutkar.

That brings us back to page 148, fiscal policy, operations expenditure summary, activity total, $42,278,000. Agreed?

Thank you, Mr. O’Reilly. Mr. Kalgutkar.

Any further questions on page 331? Seeing none. Information item on page 332. Seeing none. We shall go back to activity total on page 330. Municipal and Community Affairs, directorate, operations expenditure summary, activity total, $3,815,000.

Thank you, Mr. O’Reilly. Minister McLeod.

Thank you, Minister McLeod. Mr. O’Reilly.
